Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 863

After Jeremy Quest saw all his guests off, he immediately stopped smiling. He returned to the living room with a gloomy expression on his face and sat across from Xyla and the rest.

Jeremy glanced coldly at the servants who were cleaning up. “You guys can leave for now. Bring Emily down here on your way out.”

The servants immediately left.

When May Conner saw this, she immediately got up and sat next to him. She kept shaking Jeremy’s hand. “Honey, Emily knows she’s wrong. Please forgive her,” she said.

“Forgive her? How many times have I forgiven her? She still hasn’t changed her ways.” Jeremy’s expression was still gloomy.

May subconsciously shivered and continued to speak for Emily. “But at the end of the day, she’s still your daughter. She also has depression…”

“She can’t use depression as an excuse all the time when she does something wrong!” Jeremy uttered each word firmly.

Xyla Quest and Stanley Batton did not speak throughout this process. Instead, they merely silently observed everything…

Stanley slowly and methodically lit a cigarette. He held it in between his fingers, but he didn’t take a puff at it. Instead, he let it burn.

The smoke surrounded him, making his shapely fingers seem unusually seductive.

Right then, Emily Quest was escorted down the stairs by two bodyguards.

When Emily saw Jeremy’s gloomy face, her heart began to pound again.

Subconsciously, Emily took a deep breath. She then walked bravely up to Jeremy. “Dad, you wanted to see me…”

“Xyla, what are you going to do with Emily? No matter what you choose to do this time, I will definitely support you,” Jeremy looked at Xyla and said.

Emily immediately panicked when she heard this. “Dad… Am I not your daughter too?”

“I wish you weren’t,” Jeremy said.
